Tue, 28 Sep 2010 17:24:50 +0000http://gigaom.com/?p=160680#comment-286500I will admit: I am somewhat impressed by AOL, after at one time being mourned, showing some interesting moxie in how it is acquiring and marketing its content in realms like sports journalism and pop media news.

Tue, 28 Sep 2010 17:24:32 +0000http://gigaom.com/?p=160680#comment-286498This assessment is partially right, yes they want to gather the demographic, but I think they want to grow it even more under AOL’s banner for reputation,. The fine line they have to walk remains to be seen and it is one of resources poured into TC and hands off of MA and his process. Thats where I am leery of AOL’s ability to acquire and just step the hell back!
